A lovely acceptance today from Stoat Poetry. 'If you care' is going to be my first poem published about living with FND, a condition that has completely changed my life. It's scary putting something so personal into the world, but I know this one has found the perfect home x

What an honour to be picked! I definitely write more poetry than prose, so when I get a little nod that my stories aren't half bad it's always a huge boost. Thanks loads to @trashcatlit.bsky.social and @therelphian.bsky.social for the nomination and good luck to everyone else x

Yeah, it's a busy time at the mo but well worth it if you just fancy a day out. You can attend as many or as few of the workshops or talks as you want, plenty of nice places to eat. If you want any more info just DM me. It's certainly one for the calendar.

Really good, there was a great one on using tarot to tell stories and also one on creating your own urban legends. Honestly loved it and will definitely be back next year x

A tale inspired by an unfinished staffroom jigsaw, my morning commute over the mighty Tyne, and our long-suffering, precious teachers everywhere. Told in hope, hopefully. Thanks to wordsmith beta reading maestro @meanerharker.bsky.social apricotpress.co.uk/2026/09/09/p...
